Professional design expertise
Parts are designed by someone who thinks about load paths, wall thickness, tolerances and how the part will actually be printed and used.
3D design · Custom 3D printing · Prototyping
Have a file? We print it. Have an idea? We design it.
An engineering design and print studio in the English Midlands. Send us a 3D model, a sketch, a photo or a broken part. A real engineer reviews every request and sends you a clear, itemised quote.

I have a 3D file
Upload your model. We check geometry, material and how the part will be used, then quote.

Four ways we can help
Most jobs start in one of these places. If yours doesn't fit neatly, choose the closest one and tell us in your own words. No CAD knowledge needed.
Print
Print my 3D model
We print your file after checking geometry, material and what the part needs to do.
Quoted after review. Not every model can be printed as-is.
3D printing →
Design
Design my idea
CAD modelling from sketches, drawings, photos, measurements or a written brief. Add printing if you need the part.
Scope, revisions and deliverables agreed in the quote.
Design & prototyping →
Recreate
Replacement parts
Broken clip, discontinued knob, missing bracket. We assess whether it can be recreated.
Non-safety-critical plastic parts only.
Replacement parts →
Iterate
Prototypes & small batches
Functional prototypes, fit checks, mock-ups and short repeat runs for product teams and makers.
Capacity and lead time confirmed case by case.
Prototyping →How it works
From enquiry to delivered part
No instant prices that change later. A person checks what is feasible first, then you get a fixed, itemised quote to accept or decline.
Send your request
Upload a file, or describe the idea with photos and rough sizes. It takes a few minutes and you get a reference number straight away.
We review it
An engineer checks feasibility, material and use. If something is unclear, we ask before guessing.
You get a clear quote
Design, printing, finishing, delivery and VAT shown as separate lines, with lead time and what's included.
Approve and pay securely
Accept online and pay through a secure hosted payment link. For design work you approve the CAD before anything is printed.
Made, checked, dispatched
We print, inspect and pack your parts, then send tracking details. Design files are delivered as agreed.

Practical solutions
Sometimes the best answer is a small design change, a different material, or not printing at all. We will tell you which.
Transparent quotes
Every cost is itemised. Scope, assumptions, revisions and lead time are written down before you pay anything.
FAQ
Common questions
Short answers here. The full list covers files, approvals, pricing, materials, IP, delivery and refunds.
Do I need a 3D file to get started?
No. A sketch, a few photos with a ruler in shot, or a written description is enough to start a design enquiry.
Why can't I get an instant price?
Price depends on geometry, material, orientation, supports and finish. We check each job by hand so the price we quote is the price you pay.
Which file types do you accept?
STL, 3MF, STEP, OBJ and most common CAD formats, plus photos and PDFs for reference.
Will my design stay confidential?
Yes. Your files are stored securely, seen only by us, and never used in marketing without your written permission.
